“I grew up in Glen Ellyn, which is about 20 miles west of Chicago. I attended Glenbard South High School and University of Illinois.

“The idea of childhood as a social invention, in retrospect, is hardly credible. In the Bible, in writings of the Greeks and Romans, and in the works of the first great educator of the modern era, Comenius, children were recognized as being both different from adults and different from one another with respect to their stages of development. To be sure, the scientific study of children and the increased length of life in modern times have enhanced our understanding of age differences, but they have always been acknowledged.” WritingFirstsChildrenIdeasDifferentAgeSocialUnderstandingDifferencesStudyModernChildhoodStageDevelopmentAdultsInventionErasGreekLengthEducatorCredibleRetrospectModern TimesAge DifferenceModern EraStages Of DevelopmentLength Of Life Author:David Elkind

“When people ask me if musical theatre should be taught in music colleges, I reply that there is no need. All anyone needs to study is the second act of La Boheme because it is the most tightly constructed piece of musical theatre that there is. It is practically director-proof: you can't stage it badly because it just works too well. If you can write La Boheme, you can write anything. I would also recommend studying Britten's Peter Grimes.” PeopleIfsNeedsShouldWritingWellsAsksStudyPiecesStageTaughtCollegeDirectorsMusicalTheatreProofAsk MePeterMusical TheatreGrime Author:Andrew Lloyd Webber
